Proofreading and ethical human editing

Real editors, not software. Clear, consistent writing in your own voice.

What it is

Editing improves structure, clarity, flow and consistency. Proofreading is the final check for spelling, grammar, punctuation, formatting and references. We do both for reports, papers and manuscripts.

We also edit AI-assisted drafts. Our editors revise the text into clear, accurate, natural writing in your own voice, and check the facts and references, because AI tools can produce sources that do not exist. If AI helped with your draft, check your publisher’s or funder’s policy on disclosure.

We follow your publisher’s, journal’s or funder’s guidelines, and keep spelling, terms, numbers and references consistent from start to finish. Small inconsistencies make readers doubt the care behind good research.

Led by Eliakim Anzizi, PhD, research consultant and CEO of Erudite Digital Team Ltd. We are a remote team registered in Suleja, Niger State, with our CEO based in Kaduna, working with clients worldwide.
